I can't beleive no one's hit this one yet...

Since it's a digital currency my mind warps right back to the original Tron (I'm such a geek) where everything was "bits" and "bytes", therefore everything that is a sub-BitCoin is a Byte or ByteCoin.


But a Byte is made up of 8 bits soooo this makes no sense for the geeks among us.  When talking bits and bytes...bits are smaller.

On another note we can refer to 8 BTC as a BYTE!!!!  1024 BTC = a KILOBYTE etc. etc. Bet no one thought of that yet!

Millionnaires and billionnaires will be replaced with Bytennaires and Kilobytennaires LoL  Can't wait to see who becomes the world's first  Megabytennaire (1,048,576 BTC)
